The best restaurants serving Italian food in England

Came here because we were sick of the overpriced junk food at Butlins and needed a change. Cannot believe how good the food was, best we’ve ever had and we’ve been to plenty of Italian restaurants not just in England but all over the world. Wasn’t expecting to stumble across the best Italian we’d ever had in Skegness! So much so that we’d come back to ‘Skeggy’ just to eat here again! Also staff really nice and attentive.

The best Italian restaurant I have ever visited! The beef ragu is to die for👏🏼

I visited this restaurant for a celebration and tried this tuna steak. It was delicious. The staff was nice, friendly, and attentive. Highly recommended for both casual use and special occasions.

Wow! What a great little place to go. Firstly - we love going out to Italian restaurants to eat so we will leave our dog at home. However as we are on holiday, we couldn’t do that this time. Luckily enough, 1530 is dog friendly outside so you aren’t forced to eat in a general pub spending the same amount of money on mediocre food - so we sat outside in the sun and ate here. The service was quick, friendly and attentive with checks throughout but no disruption. Reasonably priced - £60 for a starter, main and alcoholic drink each (including an aperol!) The lasagna was full of big chunks of pulled meat and the seafood risotto was a very reasonable portion (something you don’t normally see) and had plenty of seafood in. Both were full of flavour. A nice touch to have a chocolate with the bill - no “auto” service charge so you can actually choose to tip if you want! (This place definitely deserves a tip). Will definitely be going back and you must go here if you want great quality food and actual value for money, in 2025!!

Very good ice-cream and good coffee highly recommend!!👌👍

Always very pleasing experience.

Este es un buen restaurante, estaba ocupado, tenía un buen ambiente, el personal era excelente, nada era un problema, la comida era rápida y sabrosa. El servicio desde la primera llamada telefónica hasta la salida fue de 10 / 10 llamamos tarde y pedimos una gran mesa de 8 esto se acomodó luego esa mesa se convirtió en 14 que luego bajó a 10 y nada de esto fue un problema y todo se llevó a cabo en 30 minutos, pero aún así no hay problemas y todos tuvimos una buena comida y un buen momento Tengo que decir también una gran relación calidad-precio

Walked past Leonardo's La Piazza many times, saying 'we must try there', so we at last went for a quick lunch. This was a weekday so it wasn't too busy. There's a good menu - not just pizzas. We had just a main course each: Canneloni Verde for me and it was excellent. Well made and plenty of a light cheese sauce. Hawaiian Pizza for my wife which was very good and more than she could eat, but they provided a box to take away the uneaten portion. I was a bit disapppointed that there were no options of anchovies, olives or capers - or maybe I just missed them. Had they been an option I'd probably have had a Margarita pizza with the above - but then I'd have missed the Canneloni Verde. Staff friendly and attentive. Comfortable space with 2 levels of seating inside and good outside space under a gazebo looking onto Salisbury Market Square. Worth a visit if you like Italian food.

We were on a long weekend break in Burnham-on-Sea. Came across you by accident. But have to say what a great evening meal we had. Super tasty food. Was spoilt for choice on the menu. Waitress was so friendly. Great value. A real little gem.

My husband and I arrived for dinner on sat 24th May for dinner to celebrate a special occasion. Our meals and drinks came out quickly and were delicious. We were seated downstairs and our waitress was really attentive! The only thing that let the evening down was waiting upstairs to be seated and the manager walking past us on a number of occasions, not greeting us or acknowledging us waiting which didn’t give us the greatest first impression.

First visit and will be returning. Warm welcome from the host on arrival. Starters & Mains were awesome. Served by Callum who was fantastic all night. Thank you guys!

Great food, excellent service, and lively atmosphere. A great place for a family meal. The portions are huge so bring your appetite!

I have been there today (Monday) ~45 mins after opening time but no one was there. Just wasted my time. Can't comment the food for obvious reasons.
